During the session, plans wen- completed for the Grange booth at the Malheur county fair. Mem bers were also reminded that their help will be needed at the food concession stand sponsored by the Oregon Trail llall associa tion during the Aug. 17-20 fair. Members present who have birthday anniversaries in July and August were Ira JMce, Mrs. Gerrit Stain. Mrs Gilani Ghcl delin and Tom Jones. They were escorted to the lecturer’s station by Mr. and Mrs. Audrey Duff, assistant stewards, and fined one cent for each year of their lives. Mrs. George Cleaver’s name was drawn for the attendance prize of four dollars. She was not present, so the amount will be increased to $5 for the next meeting. Nineteen members were served refreshments provided by Mr. and Mrs. Orland Cheldelin. By Oregon Stat, Bar Parking Violations Can Be Expensive Parking or stopping in a "no parking" zone can be a lot more expensive than just the cost of a parking ticket. The problem of parking on the street has become nearly impos sible in the downtown areas in many towns and cities, making it very tempting to use "no parking" zones when you are in a hurry. What if Sam Parkar wants to stop at th» drug stor» to pick up a prescription on his way horn» from work? He has driv en around th» block twice al ready and th» nearest parking lot is a good three blocks away. Sam figures it will only take a minute to run in and pick up his prescription, so he pulls up to the no parking zone on the corner in front of the store. True, if he ’s fast enough, Sam might get back to his car before it is tagged, but he’s still taking an awful chance. What if some one stopping for the arterial at that corner pulls out into the in tersection and is hit by another car? He might well contend that he couldn't see the oncoming traffic because his view was blocked by Sam's car and the chances are that Sam will be defending a suit in court. If the fact that Sam's car was parked illegally is found to have caused the accident, he will probably have to pay damages. The same could happen if a pedestrian steps out into traffic and is struck because he couldn’t see around Sam’s car. In certain instances, at night for example, the owner might be sued when an illegally parked vehicle itself is struck, if it has been stopped in an entirely unexpected spot. Remember, usually there is a good reason why an area has re stricted or no parking. It is better to take your time and walk a few blocks than to risk the conse quences of blocking a zone which for safety reasons should be kept clear.
